School Holiday Programme

With a different heritage theme offered every holiday, there’s always something new to come back to!

Our very own school holiday programme is educational and a lot of fun. A guide will take primary school children around the village, where children participate in activities like crafts, cooking games, and team activities. Bring a friend, a picnic lunch, a water bottle, old clothes and an adventurous spirit.

Please register below in advance as spaces are limited.

Our holiday programme at the Howick Historical Village is aimed a primary aged school children. We host these programmes every second Thursday of the School Holidays and the last Thursday of the Christmas Holidays, please see below for details.
